About this product

Product Information

With more than 700 mushrooms detailed with color photographs and descriptive text, this is the most comprehensive photographic field guide to the mushrooms of North America. The 762 full-color identification photographs show the mushrooms as they appear in natural habitats. Organized visually, the book groups all mushrooms by color and shape to make identification simple and accurate in the field, while the text account for each species includes a detailed physical description, information on edibility, season, habitat, range, look-alikes, alternative names, and facts on edible and poisonous species, uses, and folklore. A supplementary section on cooking and eating wild mushrooms, and illustrations identifying the parts of a mushroom, round out this essential guide.

    The amateur mushroom fanatics bible

    This book is a great resource for the amateur mushroom enthusiast. A compact book easy to use with great photos. I'm happy with my mushroom bible. (The cover of the book feels durable and is flexible enough to manage while "on the hunt" for these treasures.

  • Nat Audubon Soc Field Guide to North American Mushrooms

    I live in an area that is abundant with mushrooms. However I know of only a couple of the editable ones. Since I love mushrooms I thought I would find out what I was missing. This book is great. It tells me what is poisonous and what can be toxic if not prepared correctly. Clear,colored pictures, and also the pictures are taken, with the mushrooms in their natural habitat, which helps to identify them. Great book. I didn't know there were so many different kinds of mushrooms.I would recommend this book for any one who is interested in safely picking your own mushrooms.

  • Different type of guide, but thorough.

    It's a comprehensive book, covering hundreds of species. That said, it's quite different than other guides, with photos all together toward the front of the book, and references to descriptions in the later section. I didn't deduct a point for the inconvenience and extra trouble it takes to look things up because it covers so many types of mushrooms, and does so for an incredibly inexpensive price. I'd say it takes getting used to, but well worth the money.

  • Useful Mushroom Guide

    Helpful guide to mushrooms. Lots of full-color photographs. One feature I don't like is that the photographs are in one section of the book and the written information is in another, so the reader has to flip back and forth between the two sections. I suppose this is helpful in the logistics of printing the book, but it takes some getting used to for the reader. Otherwise, the books seems good. But I'm no mushroom expert. Readers with aging eyes should be aware that the type size runs on the small side. The copy I bought was used and in very good condition. And it came quickly--kudos to the seller.
